    Sorry it's late but still lots of time to enter:

    Chat July 2012
    I do hope all is correct – please let me know if anything is wrong and I’ll change. There is no email entry for the Chat Specials Mags

    please read the text tips below before entering
    An answer that's two words should be texted in as one word WITH NO SPACES
    ie: chatisthebest – NOT chat is the best
    If the answer is a name you only need to give the surname ie: BOGART not HUMPHREY BOGART
    You can use Capital or small letters but don't use any commas, etc, just leave out any you don't wish to answer. For help texting: email chat@eckoh.com

    according to this site
    Land’s End to John o’Groats is considered the longest distance between the north and south continuous land extremities of Britain, officially 603 miles (970.434km) as the crow flies, and 874 miles (1,406.56m) by road (according to the sign at Land’s End)
    Thereby making lovetowinacar's answer correct :D

    Ooh not sure pms - I think texting mini to that number was to win a mini but you had to buy a kilo block of chocolate which was about £10 (you have to produce a receipt dated before you sent the text) and too much to go in here probably why it wasn't posted. Can only think WHSmiths have made a mistake on their promotion, or there's two running at the same time.
    Think its standard rate to text.
    I also think the end date is in September.
    Best to check your local WHSmiths before sending a text in
